New American Standard Bible: 1995 update. (1995). (). La Habra, CA: The Lockman Foundation.

will He really find faith. This suggests that when He returns, the true faith will be comparatively rare—as in the days of Noah (17:26), when only 8 souls were saved. The period before His return will be marked by persecution, apostasy, and unbelief (, ).
